Ada was an ambitious girl, always eager to learn and always wanted to be at peace with everybody around her.
Mama, I'll like to be an ambassador of peace, she told her mother one evening after dinner.
Ha! My daughter, I know you will certainly make me proud, she replied with amazement.
Ada had two siblings:an elder brother and a younger sister. They were very young when their father died.
Though their mother, a very hard working woman who was not financially buoyant to take care of all their needs, she did her best to give her children the best education she could afford.
